It all began simply enough.
I just wanted to play drums in a local band.
Then the Beatles changed everything. It now seemed that it was possible to make a career from music.
So then, there began a year or two of banging away alone in my bedroom (Not that sort) on a make shift drum kit to beat records followed by a few rehearsals with chums from school who had similar dreamsand then barely out of short trousers Stevie boy joined his first gigging band.
It kind of went on from there
